I've been having chest pains where it feels likes spikes, clenching and a popping sensation. what is this?

Inflammation : The popping sensation originates from the joints between the breast-bone and ribs. Try an anti inflammatory medication such as aleve (naproxen) for a week. See a doctor if it continues.
